Using the Board This section provides information on using the MAX II development
board.
Apply Power
Power can be applied to the board from the USB or PCI bus. Jumper J8
controls which source supplies power. If the shunt is on pins 1 and 2, the
board will be powered via the USB bus. If the shunt is on pins 2 and 3, the
board will be powered via the PCI bus. Pin 1 of J8 is the pin closest to the
LCD. When the board is powered up, the LED power indicators (LEDs 5,
6, 7, 8, 9, and 10) will illuminate.

MAX II Development Board
PCI Bus
Power
You can power the MAX II development board from either the PCI bus or
the USB bus. If you are not using the board in the PCI slot of a PC, then
you must power the board from the USB bus. Jumper J8 is used to select
which bus powers the board. If the shunt is on pins 1 and 2, the board will
be powered via the USB bus. If the shunt is on pins 2 and 3, the board will
be powered via the PCI bus. Pin 1 of J8 is the pin closest to the LCD.
The PCI bus or the USB bus routes the power to six different regulators,
which power individual board components. The MAX II device is
powered from either a 2.5-V or a 3.3-V power supply. You select which
supply voltage to use (for VCCINT) by using jumper J9. The slew rate (or
load) of VCCINT can be adjusted by the potentiometer (POT1).
Power-Up Sequence
When you apply power to the MAX II development board, the 5.0-V
power supply powers up first, because it is the source for the 3.3-V/2.5-V
power supply. The 3.3-V/2.5-V VCCINT supply powers up second. You can
increase or decrease the rate at which the VCCINT supply comes up by

Functional Description
The outputs from the MAX II device power the ADC and the temperature
sensor because they require very little current. Those components power
up last (and at roughly the same time) because they depend upon outputs
of the MAX II device to get power. Figure 4 shows a block diagram of
power distribution on the board.

Board Components
The current sensor is located upstream from the regulators for the VCCINT
and VCCIO voltages so that only one of the voltages is required to measure
all of the current of the MAX II development board. The output of the
Maxim MAX4072 amplifier feeds the analog-to-digital converter (ADC).
See “Analog/Digital Converter” on page 16. The output of the ADC feeds
the MAX II device.

USB MAC/PHY
The USB MAC solution is from FTDI. This MAC supports USB versions
1.1 and 2.0 (High-speed only). If you want to use USB version 2.0, the
EEPROM socket (J10) must be added to the board and populated with an
EEPROM. The EEPROM should then be programmed using the utilities
provided by FTDI. See the FTDI Chip web site at www.ftdichip.com for
detailed instructions and for the required software and drivers. The
footprint on the board is for the SAMTEC EEPROM socket, part number
ICA-308-STT.
The default configuration works for USB version 1.1. FTDI’s VCOM
drivers provide a simple method to interface the MAX II development
board to a PC. The MAX II Development Kit provides an open-source
reference design using these drivers.

PCI Edge The MAX II development board features a PCI edge connector. The board
can be used in either 3.3- or 5.0-V PCI slots. This functionality is possible
Connector because the quickswitches limit the voltage in 5.0-V systems. The board
is also equipped with unpopulated resistors. You can populate these
resistors and remove the quickswitches if the desired voltage is 3.3 V and
the quickswitches are unwanted.
